Lohmann's Otter-Fokka on Milan's Novotny Memorial

It will not be a very fresh news, as the Memorial took place 6th of September. But better late than never...Briefly speaking, we went with Fokka to Czech Republic and took part in an international autumn field trial. Result: 2nd prize diploma, 125/136 points. Such score would be enough for 1st prize diploma but Fokka didn't obtain maximal score from searching in rushes.
We got following notes (4 is maximal):
-searching, style 4;
-pointing, footing 4;
-wind 4;
-searching in rushes 3;
-retrieving duck from deep water 4;
-retrieving duck from land 3;
-cooperation with handler 3;
-behaviour after pointing and shot 4.
And the photo relation:
Assembly of participants - Fokka was the only setter:

Exteriour evaluation - only dogs with excellent or very good note can participate in the trial. Fokka got excellent.

Waiting for field competition - me with Fokka and my daughter Janka with her own dog:

Before the start in the field. I'm worrying how Fokka will behave between millions of hares...Fortunately she kept cool head and stayed with me after pointing.

Water competitions:

Retrieving duck from deep water:

"

"Finally I can shake off"!

And retrieving from land:

And finally time for the family...

...and for making new friends:

And, at least, for obtaining first Fokka's diploma from the international trial:

Congratulations Renata and Fokka! A great reward for a lot of hard work training Fokka to that high level. Well done! Nice to see your youngest is stepping in mum's footprints:-))
